This Week in Elasticsearch - August 06, 2014

Welcome to This Week in Elasticsearch. In this roundup, we try to inform you about the latest and greatest changes in Elasticsearch. We cover what happened in the GitHub repositories, as well as many Elasticsearch events happening worldwide, and give you a small peek into the future of the project.

Slides & Videos

For those of you who want to get your hands dirty with the ES-PHP client, here's a nice intro tutorial for you to sing along with.

Were you at OSCON a few weeks back? The Elasticsearch team was and there were some great talks from our merry band of humans - including this one from our intrepid community manager Leslie Hawthorn.

And lest we forget, there were also a few great OSCON presentations from our amazing Elasticsearch community members, including this presentation from our friends at Mozilla.
